Built with the same quality and standards as the cedar model, the Woodland Spruce yields a slightly brighter tone because of its select solid spruce top. All select solid tops in the S&P line are pressure tested and graded for the optimal level of resonance and stiffness, making for very response instruments. Optional B-Band A3.2 electronics are available on all Woodland models.

I compared a Simon and Patrick (S & P) Woodland Spruce guitar with a S & P Songsmith Dreadnought guitar at my local Long and McQuade store. The main difference I noticed is that the Woodland Spruce guitar has a brighter sound than the Songsmith Dreadnought guitar. I purchased a Songsmith Dreadnought because I already have a S & P Songsmith Parlor guitar. In my opinion, S & P guitars are the loudest and nicest sounding guitars in the $600 price range.

I went into Long and Mcquade looking for a guitar that felt right, i am taking lessons and my Washburn was not fun to play, I tried a few lower end guitars, but they were “meh” the sales person gave me a few more to try and then, brought me this Simon & Patrick, i was blown away! It became my guitar and It gives me joy every time I play it :)

Hey hosers, the last time I purchased anything made from Canadian Woodland Spruce it was likely for a hockey stick. Fast forward to today, I definitely scored here on sound, quality and price. I love the big, bright, reverberating sound and the look and the feel of this guitar. I tried many other different makes and models over a period of several days before making this purchase. Also before buying, I had not seen any on line reviews for this guitar and so my purchase was some what unbiased or uninfluenced by anything other than the guitar itself. Well done Godin and Simon and Patrick! Now, take off eh...

Put a set of Elixir's on this guitar and listen to the sustain. It'll take a while to get the grin off your face. Maybe mine was a fluke but the sound is very full, balanced and bright. No it doesn't have quite as fat a bottom end as a non laminated body Gibson or Taylor but it didn't cost $4000 or $5000 either. I bought mine only two years ago and I love the feel and sounds this guitar produces. The narrower nut would be great for a younger player or someone with light gauge fingers (me). It takes a few minutes for me to adjust from a 1.75" neck when changing guitars but muscle memory kicks in and its all fun from there. I've never been able to find the PERFECT neck for mixed playing styles on any one guitar I've ever played. A great intermediate or beginner guitar. My guitar will be hung on to for a long long time.

I bought this guitar 10 years ago. It looked, sounded and felt great then, and has only improved over the years. It has been played by countless very experienced and professional guitar players over the years and every single one of them has remarked on it?s easy playability and it?s lovely balanced sound. I play it every day, and whenever I am tempted to shop for something new I always end up thinking ?what could I possibly buy for less than $3K that will be a significant improvement over my Simon & Patrick Spruce?? The answer: nothing.

A guitar student of mine just received this guitar for Christmas and I was blown away by the quality out of the box. The solid spruce top has a resonant response that rivals Martin guitars of twice the price. The neck is as straight as an arrow and a joy to play on. Excellent craftsmanship, wonderful sound, affordable and it's Canadian.

Any of the Godin off-shoot companies are really your best bet for buying a quality acoustic guitar in Canada. I just purchased this guitar and could not be happier. The only reason I dropped the score a bit is because there is no cut-away or tuner etc. However, these are not features that MUST be present on an acoustic so take that with a grain of salt. Build quality is amazing, set-up is great with an action that is quite low and playable for an acoustic. The main thing I would like to say is that the Spruce model is quite a bit brighter than the Cedar. I tried both the Cedar and Spruce side by side for a good hour and the Spruce was brighter and twangy while the cedar was more mellow and bass-y. This guitar rings out so beautifully that you can sometimes be fooled into thinking there is some sort of reverb/delay effect. You will not find higher quality at this price range. Period.

When I was in the market for a new acoustic guitar I researched many brands and tested many different models. I chose the Woodland Spruce for many reasons and now after 6 months of owning it I could not be happier. To me owning a guitar is about more than just one aspect. Sound, feel, quality, and lasting satisfaction of ownership all are very important to me. This guitar fills all of these aspects and I still get a smile on my face whenever I pick it up to play.

I went to Long & McQuade to buy a an acoustic guitar around $400. The sales guy recommended Simon & Patrick. I was amazed at the quality for the price. Not only does the instrument sound amazing, but it's handmade in Canada. I would highly recommend this guitar.

My S&p Woodland Spruce is a delight to play. The only think I would change are the strings. I would use silk & steel light gauge as I pick rather than strum. The bass is not too great as compared to my Martin, but I can live with it. A great sounding guitar outside & in doors

Just bought this beauty one week ago to be a room-mate for my Martin D-18. I love the tones (alittle dull on the base end) I need to buy Martin silk & steel light gauge. My question is this: Is the Red Wild Cherry solid top or Laminated? does anyone know? serial # is 029099001962 model # SP29099

I bought this S&P Woodland Spruce guitar Friday, November 23, 2012 for $399.99. Model# SP29099. With it I purchased a Crossrock Element Dreadnought Bag Model# CREG10D FOR $39.99.
For the total purchase price of $491.67. This being my only purchase of any musical equipment.
Also getting it on a 12 month easypay with Long & McQuade makes it very affordable for me at only $35.34/month with just $100 down.
The staff member I dealt with was excellent. He not only gave me some information on the guitars in great detail, he also told me honestly about the sound and production quality of the guitars and gave me his honest opinion of a cheaper guitar i was looking at for only $139.99.
I thought it was good but spending just 20 minutes in the store I made my choice of this S&P Woodland Spruce model.
Later that evening, I invited a friend over to my new home, (I just moved October 26 of this year) to a little cottage. The first immpression of this new guitar was very amazing. Ray is a very picky person about some things like this.
At first when i began talking to him earlier in the day about my purchase at his place, he was sure that for my income and for the total cost of the guitar that it would be too much for me to handle at $35.34/mo, Especially when he had already given me a classical guitar just about 6 months ago.
I however wanted 2 different guitars for the difference in sound and style.
The new S&P guitar we both found is extremely easy to play, comfortable, the sound is rich and full. Just as good as my classical, and more, this new guitar beats all as far as i have heard from other reviews so far from people who have purchased this model.
Ray told me that he was more than glad that i purchased this and even leaving my place afterward he was so shocked by what i had bought that i think he wanted one at first glance but as he turned to leave the feeling seemed to intensify.
I now look forward to using my new guitar in the days, months and years to come. There is nothing more soothing than the sound of an acustic guitar!
I will sure be back to purchase again for Long & McQuade. Thanks for such great service!

Protect your investment with the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty
A warranty can be a very important factor when making a buying decision. Because repairs can be very expensive in terms of parts and labour costs, manufacturers usually only provide one year limited warranties that generally only cover items that malfunction due to a manufacturer’s defect. With an important purchase such as a musical
instrument or piece of studio gear, however, many people want to have the peace of mind in knowing that their investment will be protected should the product no longer be performing at 100%.
Because of this, Long & McQuade provides our customers with a FREE one-year Performance Warranty on most of our products. The Long & McQuade Performance Warranty supplements the manufacturer’s warranty to ensure that our customers receive complete “no hassle” warranty coverage within their first year.
How does the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty differ from most manufacturers' warranties?
- Performance Guarantee: Normal wear and tear is covered, so your product will be performing as well as the day you purchased it for the entire duration of the coverage. Band and Orchestral Performance Warranty does not include replacing pads or cleaning for woodwind instruments, unless deemed necessary by our repair staff. Ultrasonic cleaning for brass instruments will be provided if deemed necessary by our repair staff, but is not routinely offered under the Performance Warranty.
- Product Replacement: If your product cannot be fixed or costs too much to fix, we will replace it with the equivalent model for no additional charge. If this is not possible, a full refund will be provided.
- No Lemon Policy: Your product will be replaced should the same problem occur multiple times.
- Convenient: Easy drop off and pick up of the product at any Long & McQuade location.
- Guitar Setup: Guitars purchased at Long & McQuade come with 1 free setup, to be redeemed within 1 year for new guitars and 90 days for used guitars.
- Loaners Available: A loaner product may be given while the product is being repaired.
- Power Surge Protection: Your product is covered even if damaged from a power surge.
- Accessory Coverage: Any peripheral devices or accessories that come with your product (i.e. foot pedal, case) are also covered.
- Commercial Use Coverage: Music and recording professionals who purchase gear for “heavy-use” commercial purposes will still be covered.
Long & McQuade reserves the right to restrict the purchase of additional years of Performance Warranty. Used products come with a 3-month Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Some products (i.e. computers, software, cymbals and other items) are covered only by the manufacturer‘s warranty. Consumables (i.e. strings, reeds, drum sticks, batteries, tubes, cross faders) are excluded as they are designed to be replaced. Cosmetic Damage, Accidental Damage, or problems caused by Humidity or Temperature Issues are not covered. Speakers damaged by overpowering are generally not covered. Our coverage does not provide compensation for loss of use. As of June 2018 the Performance Warranty is no longer transferable. The warranty is only valid in Canada.
Purchasing additional years of coverage
Some manufacturers provide warranties for longer than 1 year; however, these are usually limited warranties that do not provide the same coverage as the Long & McQuade Performance Warranty. Customers interested in more complete and convenient (but not necessarily longer) coverage are still able to purchase additional years of the Performance Warranty.
If you are interested in receiving this coverage for longer than one year, you have the option of purchasing additional years of the Performance Warranty. The pricing is as follows:
- NEW products: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.
- USED products: 4% of the current new selling price to increase the warranty from 3 months to 1 year. 4% for each additional year.
- GUITARS: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year. $45 maximum. An additional free setup is not included with additional purchased years of Performance Warranty.
- BAND and ORCHESTRAL instruments: 4% of the current new selling price to double the warranty from 1 year to 2 years. 4% for each additional year.

Performance Assurance
Buying a new instrument is an exciting event and we want to ensure that every instrument we sell comes exactly how the manufacturer intended it to be. That is why Long & McQuade performs a quality control check for every stringed, brass, and woodwind instrument over $99 ordered online at Long-McQuade.com.
Our team of experienced staff will unbox your instrument and perform a detailed inspection to ensure it leaves our warehouse looking and playing great with our QC card signed and dated for your peace of mind.
We work hard to source the best instruments from around the world from the finest brands. It is important to us that you are completely satisfied with your new instrument purchase from day one onwards.
Stringed Instrument Performance Assurance Checklist
Unlike our free set-up, which is included within the first year of purchase, this process is done to have the instrument set to the factory specs rather than to each player's feel or preferences.
We look after the following:
- Inspect finish and hardware.
- Check electronics to make sure everything is in working order. Check batteries on active pickups.
- Inspect strings.
- Inspect frets and fretboard.
- Check truss rod. Adjust for bow and relief.
- Tune instrument to manufacturer’s specified tuning.
- Check/set action height.
- Stretch strings and re-tune instrument and ensure machine heads are working well.
- Check for fret buzz by playing every note.
- Check/set intonation.
- Check/set pickup height.
- Cleaning and professional repacking.
Band and Orchestral Performance Assurance Checklist
We look after the following:
- Proper lubrication of valves and keys.
- Inspect pads.
- Proper fit of tuning slides.
- Proper fit of tenon joints.
- Lubricating corks for ease of set up.
- Inspecting the case.
- Safe removal of any shipping corks.
- Ensuring all accessories function properly.
- Inspecting bow hair and test tension.
- Ensuring soundpost and bridge are set correctly.
- Testing tuning pegs.
- Tuning strings to correct pitch.
- Cleaning and professionally repacking.
